Disorder 6 Features An Amnesiac Couple And A Pair Of Persistent Detectives

After waking up in the middle of some warehouse, Joe and Shiina come across a corpse of a woman in white. After being spotted by a detective, the two make a run for it and mark the start of an unexpected adventure. 5pb introducesDisorder 6’s two protagonists and their friends, along with a pair of detectives who relentlessly chase them down.

Joe

Joe is a young man who is bound by cuffs to Shiina. He has no recollection of anything that has happened prior to his awakening at the warehouse. He lacks will power and is always being pulled around by a much more strong-minded Shiina.

Shiina

Shiina is the mysterious girl who is cuffed to Joe. Apart from some fragmented memories, she has no recollection, similar to Joe, and doesn’t exactly know who he is, aside from his name. However, her feelings of love for him are still present. She has a mature personality, but she occasionally confuses Joe by doing and saying things that are completely out of character.

Hinako

Hinako is the former leader of the “team”. Due to circumstances surrounding a certain incident, she has joined forces with Joe and Shiina. She has close friends by the name of Tatsu, Yasu and Rumi. Hinako is somewhat regarded as a boss figure in the local area.

Tatsu

One of Hinako’s close friends. He quit the team but still acts as an underling to Hinako and follows her around. Tatsu is a simple and frivolous character, but whenever Hinako isn’t around, he shows a more timid and weaker side.

Yasu

Similar to Tatsu, he quit the team but remains close to Hinako. He’s a cool, calm and collected character who is often unfazed by anything. He’s very intelligent and wouldn’t hesitate to run his mouth against Tatsu or Hinako when he feels the need.

Rumi

Rumi is one of Hinako’s three closest friends. She’s a bizarre delinquent who is considered a bit foolish, fickle, lonely and indecisive. Rumi is full of emotions and is never shy around others.

Kobayakawa

Kobayakawa is a female detective who is affiliated with the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department. She has a strong sense of justice, and would do anything to get her job done. Due to her personality, she stands out among the other detectives at the police station. After discovering a dead body at the factory warehouse, she’s been persistently tracking down Joe and Shiina as potential witnesses to the crime.

Date

Date is a young detective who is currently majoring in criminal psychology. He has joined forces with Kobayakawa in tracking down Joe and Shiina as potential witnesses. He is there to keep an eye on Kobayakawa, who can sometimes let her passionate sense of justice get the best of her.

I’m really tired and read the title as Disgaea 6. I need to go to sleep.

Crevox

I did that this time and the last time they posted an article on this.

Amnesiac couple? Why stop there? Amnesia for everyone!

neocatzon

That will be hilarious if everyone amnesic again after a few chapter and made a new love among themselves. The end game will be full of confusing recollections. Joke aside, the police dispatch Date, a criminal psychologist, it’s interesting they assume their target have a hint of psychopathology.

Also, it has to be always amnesia. There are two kinds of amnesia, and this one where you forget past things from this point backwards is the less common. I mean it’s so very weird and it won’t happen unless there is something bad in the brain or an almost mortal hit on the head…

neocatzon

Anterograde amnesia. If that happens i don’t know how we save the game or even progress the story XD.

FakkuDesu

Would have really prefered if the protagonist wasn’t a weak wimp as implied by the description, i’m sure it’s just as a big turn off for most people as it is for me, the glasses guy would do a much better job and would certainly be liked as a protagonist, IMO.

meh, i’m trying it when it comes out anyways.

Nicholas Yee

Dips on me calling Date as the bad guy!

Pythia Brixham

Date committed the murder, I’ve seen this on TV before.

DyLaN

I don’t trust Rumi. I blame a certain ending in 999.

Lemon

I know what you mean. I’m hoping the twist will be more unexpected than the killer or villain being one of the 2 main protagonists…

Dunamis’s art uh?, im so making Rumi my waifu, anyways knowing fromw here this is coming, story is going to be crazy

Aristides

… I wish I could read Jap… Its a shame that living in the west has deprived me of one of my favorite game genres….

…*sigh* YET another 5pb masterpiece that will probably never be localised. Character designs look great. And lol gotta love the totes original amnesia theme (Y) although it depends on what they do with it.
